Fagioli Al Uccelletto “Tuscan Baked Beans”
These are the beans I served with the Italian-Style Slow-Roasted Pork Roast with Oranges & Onions . They go perfectly with it. You can use canned beans instead of soaking the beans overnight, if you want to make it easier. These beans are a typical dish from Tuscany, particularly in the Florence area.

Lentil Salad
Try this Lentil Salad. Lentils are a powerhouse of nutrition. They are a good source of potassium, calcium, zinc, niacin and vitamin K, but are particularly rich in dietary fiber, lean protein, folate and iron.

Lemon Rosemary White Bean Dip
Lemon Rosemary White Bean Dip is so good. It seems like hummus is taking over the supermarkets. It occupies a big piece of refrigerator real estate. Don't get me wrong, I love good hummus, but I am a bit sick of it. Here is a new dip idea that's fast and easy.

Cassoulet with Turkey and Sausage
This Cassoulet with Turkey and Sausage is a rich, slow-cooked casserole originating in the south of France, containing meat, and white beans. The dish is named after its traditional cooking vessel, the cassole, a deep, round, earthenware pot with slanting sides. I made this to use up our leftover turkey. Instead of the bread crumbs on top, I put leftover stuffing.

Delicata Squash Stuffed with Sausage, White Beans & Parmesan
Having grown up in all four seasons, I always feel cheated living in Southern California. Over the long weekend, on our way back from the beach we stopped at a wonderful pumpkin patch. I usually buy acorn squash and make Acorn Squash with Sausage, Peas & Onions, but I decided to branch out and try the Delicata squash.
